3rd competition in the Northern eSoaring series is this coming weekend and all are welcome, either to fly or observe.Venue is Wetlands (Please note that dogs are not allowed)https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.35803 ... r_7hLmRT5c

(Rules are as last year BUT 30 second run now applies to 2m)

As usual the decision whether to use the reserve day will be announced asap, but that usually means before midday on Friday.

Please sign up by posting on here or by PM. State; Name, Class, Days available (Sat/Sun) and freq if not 2.4gHz

Usual heads-up mid-week.With all the rain over the last 2 days, it has left the field and approaches very wet and it is likely that we will move to Sunday to allow another day of drying out, to reduce the chance of our getting stuck in the mud!

More by tomorrow evening. Could do with a few more entries, illness and holidays has attacked the entry list this time.

Hi All

Moving to Sunday for the comp this weekend, to give extended drying time! Fred tells me that they had 55mm of rain during the week and that we might have to go up the top. If that is the case, it will be in one of the furthest fields (probably 4) but we will decide on the morning and check out the bottom fields first around 8:30.At least the weather looks good for once!!

Cheers

Mike

Hi Mike

Sorry for later response but I have been earmarked to assist on an imminent house move. However Sunday falls well for me.

All the best
